battery

I am currently using a 20 year old,at least, Centech battery charger. I only use it on 2 amp for the tractor, zero-turn(monthly or so to top off), and vehicles as needed. I dropped it when hooking up to the tractor and the indicator needle fell off but it still charges fine, the light going from...

I was looking to pick up a battery-powered leaf blower to keep by my basement door in winter for blowing snow and firewood debris off the patio where we keep our firewood in winter, and then by the pool for blowing leaves and pollen off the pool cover and deck in summer. I don't need much...

While I have the charger on it, and before I start trying to figure out what caused the dead battery in my TX25, does anybody have an idea of where to start? Like is there anything that can be accidentally left on while the key is not in the ignition? TIA -Andrew

I have a battery disconnect on my Kubota X900 RTV that I park in my basement for safety reasons. My question is can I put one on a Mahindra 4540 tractor that I recently purchased? It has a ECU that mainly controls the injection system I believe. Will disconnecting the battery on a regular basis...

I couldn't find what Group Battery is in these tractors on the web so here's what I did. Original "Rocket" battery is about 10.5"x6.5" wide. Group 34 in the charts measure a little wider. I took a chance and with a tape measure went to Walmart and low and behold their Group 34 is actually a...

Hello everyone, I have a Long 350 with a Perkins engine. The tractor was running fine. I turned it off and went to start it again on a different day and it is acting like the battery is dead. The battery is brand new - bought it in Oct - and it was starting the tractor just fine. I took the...

We have a 60 volt Dewalt 12 AH battery that works on the Shop vac, holds charge, but doesn't work on the chainsaw or leaf blower. Does anybody have any ideas? Is there someplace I can take it for repair? It's several years old, but hardly used

2014 DK45 cab tractor. Used it on Sunday with no issues. Tried to start it Monday, turned key to heat plugs and indicator came on then when ready turned to on and "click" everything is dead and only the oil indicator light is barely on. Probably been 4 years since last battery replacement...

I bought a LS tractor knowing diddle squat about tractors, but man do I love it now. I put in a new battery for the winter, I got nothing. I checked the terminals, clean. I checked to make sure I didn't put it in backwards. I tightened it down with a torque wrench. I swore at it a lot. I...

I have an AGM battery in my Hustler Raptor X lawn mower that needs charging. I've been told that a normal battery charger (Schumacher SC-600A) can't be used. What battery charger are you using for AGM batteries? Also, the battery in my Kioti DK4510 is getting weak, and I'm thinking of...

Tractor is around 6 years old. Battery still works, but now has some attitude while cranking the engine over at 60 degrees outside. I decided to remove and replace the old battery for new now while the weather is still favorable. I have changed numerous batteries on numerous machines in the...

2008 S 185, now with 364 total hours. Have owned it 5 years. All it has ever done since new is remove snow from 2 or 3 driveways, and machine is very clean. Bought it from the widow of the original owner who cleaned snow from the very same driveways. So interior cab light stopped working...

The battery light comes on when I start the tractor. As I crank up the RPMs, it begins to dim and goes out at around 2,000 RPM. I tightened the belt, visually inspected the wiring, removed and cleaned a few connections. All looks good to my untrained eye. What are my next steps? Thanks, Chris

I own a 2015 Bobcat Toolcat 5600 (2250 hrs, almost none of it mine) for about 1.5 years. It is relatively important to understand that I am near 70 with health issues and I got the thing to help me/us manage our very small (3 acre) suburban lot of mostly trees so we could keep living here...

After the headlight were accidentally flipped on and was left on for a couple of hours on a hot day, the 4+ year old battery was drained and went completely dead. Almost every time I tried to start the tractor from a jump (via a battery pack, a vehicle, etc.), the glow light would come on for...

With a bunch of older different vehicles I need batteries of different sizes. Does anyone have a spreadsheet of the BCI sizes so I can sort on different columns? I'm thinking of being able to sort on length then width.

We have a Deere 650 dozer here for some work around the house, and its alternator died. A week later after replacing the alternator, the battery was dead. All it would give was a click click. I broke out a small lithium ion jump pack that I bought sometime in the past year, but never had a...

Hey guys, I have a Ferris IS 2100z with the above engine. To try to keep this as short as possible a few years ago I replaced the factory battery that came with my Ferris. The original battery was seven or eight years old so I just figured it was the battery. Turned out the cable from the...

I have an older Ditch Witch J20 equipped with a 2 cylinder Wisconsin TJD 18HP air cooled engine that I bought at an equipment auction a month ago. When I picked it up the battery was weak and required using a jump box to get it to start to load it onto my trailer. Once I got it home, I had...

My spouse needs a battery string trimmer to use at her dad's place. Do you have one you like? I see Makita makes them. I have battery's and extra chargers for use with them. Makita DUR190LZX3 18V Li-ion LXT Brushless Line Trimmer

I have a 2003 MF 451. The first time I started the engine the battery light was flashing. I asked the MF dealer who was selling it and he said that is normal, rev-up the engine and the light will go out. That is true every time I start the tractor_why? It's almost like the battery SOC turns on...

I have a Mahindra 3525 that is not charging new battery I installed the battery it would turn on had it running for hour then the next day it was dead I had to put jumper cables for it can start when the battery is at 12 volts the volt slowly go down when running then at 5 volts that’s when it...

When working on various auto accessories, I needed an easy to use 12 volt power source for testing purposes. So, I bought an adapter off Amazon that attached to Dewalt 12 volt battery packs, and 3D printed a small box that attached to it, with 4mm banana plug sockets installed. Now, I can attach...

The battery on my 2018 M7060 seems to need replacing (slow to crank after a week or so). My first thought was just to pull it, take to a local battery shop and get a replacement (because I'll bet Kubota is very proud of theirs). If I pull it, the tractor would be without any power for a week...

Have a new and old rectifier/ regulator. All connections are good. Puts out 33 volts DC! Generator puts out 22volts AC. Continuity checked every wire great grounds. HELP!!!

Another question: I have two chargers/maintainers. The first one after connecting pretends to disulfate, charge and after it charged the battery to 100% it keeps constantly fluctuating from 13.4V to 13.55V non stop. The second one does the same but after charging the battery to 100% at ~13.5V...

I have 1, 3 and 5 amp NOCO battery chargers and on the 3 and 5 amp do not fully understand how the desulfate function works. Can anyone explain how this functions and if it auto-engages or I have to set some special way? The 1 amp does not have a desulfate mode.

1984 Ford 1520 cranked right up at the end of fall last year. battery dead now. charged it. checked it with a meter. Registered 12+ volts. turned the key and the glow plug lit up. Then nothing. Checked the battery connections. The negative was able to be twisted slightly so i tightened...

Looking to see what rated battery CCAs is suggested for my '53 Ford Jubilee... Im not sure if the old one is right...it works dont get me wrong but what is called for in that machine?? Want to make sure I get a properly sized battery when I replace it here soon..........

Lots posted on batteries here lately, so here's my contribution. I'm not sure what's going on with Kubota batteries these days. It's been my experience that they used to average 8 - 10 years. The one in my L6060 died after just 3. No indication on the battery as to who makes it, it just has...

When did they first start advertising a battery with electronics as a "generator"? Did it start in the US?

Have some 18v tools. Don't know sizes, but I have two "small" batteries and one larger. the larger battery after a "full" recharge, still has one indicator light out, indicating it's not fully recharged. Been debating on getting on/two more of the larger capacity batteries but when I see the...

My 2022 Massey Ferguson 4707 tractor has a dead battery. The date of 09/11/2021 is on the battery, so I'm guessing that's how old it is. I bought a battery for my wife's van last month, and the guy at NAPA said that batteries only last 3 years on modern cars because of all the electronics...

Not sure where else to put this... I am in the market for a good ($100-125 price range) rechargeable autojumper? Looking for good advice and experience. Thanks

Howdy everyone, I'm new to the forum but it looks like a good resource for the future. I help my uncle out on our family's hobby farm. We have a small herd of milking shorthorns located in Central NY. Last year we purchased a second hand 2019 NH Workmaster 75 with less than 1000 hours on it. The...

When I was a kid helping out is a shop, the meticulous owner told me to ALWAYS turn the lights on for two minutes before a battery charge to drain off surface resistance to a charge. Is this a wive's tale?

I usually charge all my batteries with a smart charger late in December and then again in the spring and that's been fine. But I have a 6V "weak" battery in my IH Super C that I'm thinking of bringing into the heated garage for the winter. Maybe others like my old truck and some tractors. I...

Hello to all, I have 2-3 tractors & ATV's that periodically have weak batteries. My brother uses trickle battery chargers. I was seeking your advice on makes & models that work well and aren't trash in x yrs. These are covered sheds, but not climate controlled for temp or humidity, but...

I need a new battery. WalMart has a Everstart Group 51 410 CCA. Is 410 CCA big enough?

The original battery was getting so weak, it would barely crank, after 9 years. It was a Rocket GB60L group 85 battery, hard to find. Today I replaced it with a group 24F with 710 CCA. After taking measurements, I had determined a group 24 would fit in the slightly oversized battery...

80v Kobalt System was a chainsaw, leaf blower, hedge trimmer, hedge-trimmer-ona-pole, pole saw, edger, string trimmer, maybe more. Local Lowe's had them all on display. Bought the chainsaw- liked it, went back and bought the hedge trimmer- liked it. Most or all tools are available with or...

Just curious if anyone has a battery powered ATV and if so what make and opinion on how they compare to a gas one

A tester says my Kubota L3710's 2019 Autocraft Gold non-AGM battery is reaching the end of the line. Is there any point in getting an AGM battery for an old tractor? I don't know whether an AGM battery will like the Kubota's charging system.

Ok, heres a real strange one. I have a AGM battery for my Cyclone Rake. I remove it every year for winter. Last winter i forgot to place it on a trickle charger midway thru winter like i usually do. Come spring, i tried hooking it up to my Noco battery charger and it says i have cables on...

I purchased a new battery for the Jeep the other day after noticing the old one was going on 8 years old. While doing the research, I noticed that prices have increased drastically and yet, warranties have been reduced. Sign of the times I guess. At any rate, while prepping and installing, I...

I see it over and over, a person has a starting issue. It just clicks, turns over slow or other weird electrical issues. They say “the battery is good”. The first thing to do is load test the battery. These also give you the voltage of the battery but that alone isn’t enough. The picture...

Boosted the battery and jump started the tractor ran it for an hour or so dragging large logs from the bottom to higher ground where I turn them into firewood. Put the tractor away and went out today to start it and it would not start. Before I run out and buy a battery, I'd like to know how...

I went out to use the tractor and move some wood chips around. Turned the key and nada, zilch, no clicking, no lights on dash, nothing. 5 years and 21 days on the Legend from Napa. I was sort of surprised because ever since I put that Legend in on 8-01-2019 it's had a BatteryMinder 1500...

Do you need the D batteries but only have C batteries available in your house? And living in a rural area that caused you to drive a long way to get it? Here is a solution 😉😉 Jkk

I have a 3550 HST tractor and recently the battery keeps dying when parked. I disconnected the - cable and put a test light between the cable and battery. Test light glows brightly. I pull every fuse one at a time and any relays I could find by the radiator and each time the light did not got...

I'm trying to find a battery that would fit a 276d, as N70Z batteries aren't commonly available.

Is there any way to bring a normal led acid battery back to life that just won't keep a charge? I have my brother-in-law's excavator at my house and it is in need of batteries. I have filled them with water and charged them. They will start it just fine soon after they are charged and they test...

I have a Ford Golden Jubilee that was a gift from my uncle before he passed away. I am not an experienced tractor owner, so I watch a lot of videos online to learn how to repair it (to give context of my knowledge of tractors). Is there any way for me to determine whether it has the original 6...

Don't see a good place for this so trying it here. My two old $19.95 automatic Sears battery chargers have finally failed me after 30 plus years, But the ones I see on-line look like something from out space. Help, I need good suggestions for replacement as we use them often. The Sears units...

Given a fixed volume (size dimensions) Which battery Voltage provides the most available energy (Ah) ? I'm talking about small batteries as might be fitted to a TRACTOR. ;-)

I am looking at buying a battery powered push mower for a small section of my yard that too big to just use a weed eater and really tight and awkward for my zero turn. Just wondering what brands people have had good or bad experiences with.

Hadn't started my 7.3 diesel for a few months but it's been on a battery tender most of that time. Hood had been up. Fired it up and got an immediate boom and heard something hit the barn wall. Turns out, it blew a (3 cell) battery cap off one battery. Looks like one cell is barely covered...

I had to replace the battery in my RK55. I got the same class battery as the original. After replacing the battery, the tractor starts just fine, but the Engine Warning Light comes on and stays on. No other indicators are shown. The manual only shows this indicator with the stationary regen...

Anyone out there still own a TYM451. Mine is still a great tractor. However alternator not charging battery. Brand new alternator. Anyone know wher the fuse is?

I need tools to clean up where the tractor-mounted rotary mower can't fit. Often the weeds are knee-high or more before I get to it. Trimming is done only a few times per year, more to keep fire danger down than for aesthetics. So I need something heavier than just lawn equipment. It looks like...

The firehouse burned https://www.wabi.tv/2024/05/22/fire-marshals-office-investigating-fire-stacyville/ This is why I've gotten out of the habit of leaving my batteries on charge. Last month I had a 6aH battery and charger overheat.

The battery was stolen out of my Yanmar FX32 tractor. I called my local car parts store and they said they could get a battery that would fit in the space, but it's best to have the part number, to make sure I get the correct cranking amps. I don't have the receipt from when I bought that...

My Kubota’s only a couple/few years old and already a dead battery, by chance my ranger battery is on it’s last leg, my riding lawnmower battery is kaput and I have a stack of other dead batteries. This guy claims that this charger will fix any and all dead and depleted batteries and he has...

I want to replace the positive battery cable and aside from the price of the oem, I don’t care for the light gauge clamps. The question I have is there’s a second cable attached to the positive clamp with plug in connector that goes to the main 50 amp fuse. I’d like to replace this cable also...

On my Kohler CH25s, I have the analog SAM ignition… If a battery connection is loose (as in just put the cable end onto the post and pushed down slightly) can it cause an intermittent miss/stumble etc.? After much work on the motor recently I had just put the battery cables on, but forgot to...

I need to replace the positive battery cable on my 16-year old BX24 because the connector has gotten so deformed over the years that it no longer clamps properly and can still be moved around even with the bolt tightened all the way down. Rather than put a generic clamp-on battery terminal on...

My battery is dieing and I'm having trouble finding a 4DL battery. Is a 4DLT the same? I'm not sure it will fit under the hood...

Afternoon everyone, Recently discovered after doing some spraying that my tractor died. Checked the battery and it was dead, this is a new battery, less than 6 months old. Charged the battery and got it running and checked voltage across the battery, was only charging at 11.6v...checked the...

Battery fully charged. No clicks when key is turned on. No headlights. No power to solenoid. Nothing. Is this a bad ECM?

deleted; due to the lack of thoughtful answers to the actual qestion.

I didn't know where to ask this question so I just chose this forum. Is it possible to hook up a battery jump pack to a trickle charger? I don't use the two that I have very often and that means that when I have to use one it usually is not fully charged. So my question is can you attach the...

need new batteries, can't find anything on this machine! or can i just throw any battery in it?

Anyone using a lithium battery on their tilt or dump trailer? How do they perform? I’m considering one for my recently purchased tilt trailer.

My 9 year old tractor battery for my New Holland 3930 is not turning over fast enough to start the tractor. Before buying a new battery I’m going g to try to charge it. Question is this- is a large tractor battery considered a “deep cycle” battery? I’ve gotten good service out of this battery...

I need a replacement tractor battery for my Kubota L4600. Where is the best place to get one. Can I buy at a Sam's club or Walmart? 12V, CCA: 582A us what I think I need according to specs. I got lucky the original battery lasted almost 10 years.

I'm looking at Interstate Battery MTX-94R/H7. It says: AGM Valve, Regulated Lead Acid, (VRLA) is required. My charger has two setting-regular battery or AGM. Which one to use?

Hey folks, I have a Shibaura SD2243D that wouldn't start this morning. It sounded like the battery was very weak. I was able to jump start it with a battery block, but even with the tractor running, I see only 12 volts at the battery. I'm thinking my alternator may be shot. My plan is to...

I have an older PT-1425, with 25hp Kohler, whose battery loses voltage when turned off and at rest slowly from a full charge. I can read about 23 milliamps current draw with the key removed. I disconnected the rectifier in case a diode or something caused it, but that didn't change the current...

During my lifetime, I've gone through almost a dozen of these booster battery packs. None have lasted more than a few years before the internal lead acid battery fails. I've replaced a couple of these dead batteries but the cost is so close to buying a new pack that it doesn't seem worth it...

Is the Kubota MX5400 battery an AGM or flooded/wet-cell battery? There is nothing identifying which it is on the label or in the manual. A parts look-up doesn't mention which it is.
